Johnson Creek COE campground is a well maintained roomy campground. 30 and 50 amp electric. Bathrooms need updating, but are not in bad shape. Highly recommend staying here for an extended stay (up to 14 nights) as there is a lot to do around this lake.

We loved it here! My family and I camped out here during MLK weekend. I loved that we were allowed to check in on a Saturday and stay until Monday. Most Campgrounds require Friday check ins and if it is a holiday weekend you must stay 3 days. This worked out since we only wanted to stay 2 days. Nice staff, decent bathrooms, fire pit has a grill attached so we did not need your personal grill. T201 and T202 is perfect for a family camping together since they are so close to eachother. We did walk to check out the other campsites and they are pretty close together but not secluded from others so in busier seasons you may experience crowds or noise. It was a very peaceful and quiet MLK weekend.
The only complaint we had was parking is not a drive thru you'd imagine it's park wherever you can. Tricky for lower cars and perfect for trucks.
